Abstract

This article deals with one of the most important and delicate issues of the mechanism of International criminal law. Necessity to clear up all issues connected with the principle of complementarity’s is even greater since the Statutes of Tribunals for former Yugoslavia and Rwanda does not recognize such principle. There are several criteria for the Court when de-ciding on admissibility cases, which should be analyzed from the theoretical point of view. Yet, since there is no jurisprudence still, this question will, for sure, emerge again when the Court starts with first cases.
